Really? Its nuts? Not reasonable at all? Come on.

Cade is not LeBron. Mobley is very, very good.

Could he be a better fit next to Towns than Wiseman would've been?

The thought of Mobley in Minnesota makes me cringe.

How would you guys compare Mobley to Ayton and JJJ as prospects?

I like him better as a prospect than both.

As much as I like JJJ, Mobley's a better prospect because he plays with a higher BBIQ at both ends. 15 years ago, Ayton would have been the best prospect of the 3, but he's not as valuable in today's NBA - which favors Mobley's versatility and lateral quickness.

Worse than Ayton, probably better than JJJ

Jaren Jackson is extremely overrated as a prospect and a player. He’s very disappointing in relation to the hype he’s gotten.

Maybe one day, but as of now he’s a spot up shooter who can block a few shots, but is extremely soft as a rebounder and inside presence. For a supposedly 6’11 generational athlete to be grabbing rebounds at Andrea Bargnani levels is BAD. Rebounds are kind of overrated, but when it’s glaringly bad, it speaks volumes.

He’s not that daunting of a prospect or as a player to pretend he was generational in his own draft, or his nba play to pretend a guy can’t be a better prospect than him. :dontknow:

You saying he is a spot up shooter shows you don’t watch him play. But go ahead and start trying to move the goal posts.

Never heard anyone refer to Jaren as generational. Plus I even posted Mobley was a better prospect. He went 4th in the draft, so your extremely overrated prospect take does not hold up.
